A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory:
After consulting with the Division of Research and Graduate Studies, all colleges and departments are considered research active. To determine the number of faculty and departments of those endeavor in sustainability-related research, we dispersed a research survey to all tenure- and tenure-track faculty, inquiring whether they were currently engaged in sustainability-related research. As of 2/3, 37 faculty out of 115 responses identified as engaging in sustainability related research: https://drive.google.com/file/d/18pmUmkDC9n8hHSfQKSzIlOVv6Zw2OfG0/view
